Olivier Giroud

Dzeko is scoring these in the Champions League



Meanwhile, Giroud is doing athletics against some Eastern European farmers?

The English hype machine never ceases to amaze me

Giroud is French doe. And I'm Greek. Also, this forum is being run on a German server

Hard to believe he has been with us since 2011.

Will miss him. Deserves a better send off too.

underrated player tbh, always cropped up with a big goal

he will bench Morata

The donkey AND Walcott gone in one transfer window...

Shame no one wants Welbeck or he would be gone by now too.

Legend.

Zidane has scored a lot more than I would have thought for a midfielder.

He's both extremely annoying and effective at the same time.

Benzema would have broken Henry's record if he wasn't kicked out

Poor man's Andy Carroll.

I think it's time that we admit Giroud is world class and has been for a long time.

He's alright

Perfect word to describe his career.

The guy was an "alright" starter for Arsenal. Immediately shown the door after Lacazette/Auba came through as Arsenal knew they needed better. They have been better, too.

At Chelsea he is a backup and has never cemented himself as a starter.

Man has some amazing goals. He'll have the highlight reel of a top player. However, he's just not a world class player. He's a good player to have in your rotation, but he shouldn't start for a top team. His top PL tally is 16 even when the man had Ozil and Cazorla feeding him.

He's had a good career overall though. No disrespect. It takes a lot to be world class.

I was drunk, apologies

His main issue is his speed. He has good technical ability and finishing and hold up play, he’s just slow as shit.

Honestly, this is it.

Great squad player for a top team. Not a starter but every top team in the world would love to have him.

Occasional wonder goal merchant.

OUT.

An Arsenal fan hyping up Olivier Giroud? Couldn't be me.

Man went half a season without scoring while playing in front of prime Özil, Alexis Sanchez and Cazorla

Just realized he's only 7 goals behind Henry as France's all time top scorer   Could potentially smash it during the Euros  

He's benched by Benzema

Mehzema will stink up the joint for 79 minutes and it'll be up to Giroud to come off the bench and score the winner(s)

Benzema is cursed by african shamans it seems. HE couldnt score to save his life last night

You could see the french players doing their all to feed him. They really wanted him to get that goal. Nice to see

Man...I do not want this old scrub.

He is slow as it comes its if he is running on hummus.

Go back to your southern French bumpkin village Giroud.

World Class at one point but he is still a useful tool even now
